Actually no, the double bent liftarm has no point where it balances perfectly.

yes, http://peeron.com/inv/parts/43857 (but I've none yet!)

Sure you can !!!

Yes it works, but to rise the foot completely you have to add the bottom
motor part. I had a completely lifting foot using the 5 pieces design by
replacing the flex axle with a 29L flex tube (thats a bigfoot!!!), the added
weight compensate better 1x7 liftarm weight.

| (...) Thanks, I'll be trying it out soon myself. I figured that if it lifted its foot off the ground, it would more easily be considered a walker. I hope you have fun watching it stomp around :). -jrl P.S. Are you planning on taking any pics? (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
